.SHORT TERM...
(This evening through Wednesday)
Issued at 1208 PM CDT TUE SEP 9 2025
There`s really not a lot to discuss weather-wise through the next
couple of days. A deep trough remains over much of the Eastern CONUS
with low level high pressure in place. This will help the drier air
mass persist across Central AL today and tomorrow. Little to no
chance for rain is expected with mostly clear skies. Highs will
reach into the mid to upper 80s for most of the area through
midweek.

.LONG TERM...
(Wednesday night through next Monday)
Issued at 1208 PM CDT TUE SEP 9 2025
Little change is expected in the sensible weather through the
weekend and into early next week. The trough over the Eastern CONUS
shifts eastward slightly with broad ridging building in by Friday.
This ridge will persist through the weekend and with the increased
subsidence and dry air mass, daytime highs will trend upward into
the low 90s by Sunday and Monday.

.AVIATION...
(18Z TAFS)
Issued at 1208 PM CDT TUE SEP 9 2025
VFR conditions expected through the next 24 hours. Generally
easterly winds should persist with occasional gusts due to
mixing. However, confidence on wind gusts is too low to explicitly
mention in TAFs. Winds will diminish overnight and increase again
around 15z tomorrow.

.FIRE WEATHER...
The dry weather pattern will continue through the end of the week.
Min RHs will drop into the 30% range for most of the area by
Wednesday and will persist through the end of the week. The center
of the high pressure will build overhead over the weekend, leading
to slightly higher daytime highs. This will result in MinRHs
dropping into the 25-30% range for many locations on Saturday. Winds
should remain generally light with occasional gusts with daytime
mixing.
